Day 5 has the usual suspects!

Kees really went to town with the paint scheme on his DC-3, a work of art in more ways than one: http://www.aircraftresourcecenter.com/Gal15/14101-14200/gal14174-Artcare-Kuyper/00.shtm

63CPE, known on this board by the pseudonym 63cpe (subtle...) displays his well-executed Henschel autogyro: http://www.aircraftresourcecenter.com/Gal15/14101-14200/gal14182-Hs126-63CPE/00.shtm

And my Kuwaiti Supermarine Swift, 'orrible decals and all: http://www.aircraftresourcecenter.com/Gal15/14101-14200/gal14178-Swift-Bailey/00.shtm

Heavily influenced by Alexander Calder no doubt.  :thumbsup:
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

My God, that Screech....     I never thought of myself as one that would purchase a built model but I'd shell out for that!  So shiney!  All these are great but, as always, I have "pick a fav" to mention.   ;D ;D

I like the ARTCARE, too. I can almost hear the drum circle. . .    ;D  :angel: ;D

And it still goes on.

Hal Elsberry gets quite creative with his Driving Mrs. Rommel: http://www.aircraftresourcecenter.com/Gal15/14101-14200/gal14194-Rommel-Elsberry/00.shtm

And a double dose of Bill Arnold, who seems to have been quite busy on the chicken farm this year. First is a B-17: http://www.aircraftresourcecenter.com/Gal15/14101-14200/gal14191-B17-Arnold/00.shtm

And next is his Tiger Models Ki-84 (Frank): http://www.aircraftresourcecenter.com/Gal15/14101-14200/gal14186-Ki-84-Arnold/00.shtm

To quote from Bill's article; "The model required no putty as the fit was excellent." Oh, if only regular models were turned out to the same standard!  :banghead:

First, a kouple of Kees Kuyper's kool krazy krafty kreations, the Dornier Dusseldorf: http://www.aircraftresourcecenter.com/Gal15/14101-14200/gal14199-Blitz-Kuyper/00.shtm

And a sleek looking VTOL: http://www.aircraftresourcecenter.com/Gal15/14101-14200/gal14197-VTOL-Kuyper/00.shtm

Two more from Bill Arnold, and by now his modeling preference needs no eggsplanation. First is an Avenger that looks even more rotund than usual: http://www.aircraftresourcecenter.com/Gal15/14101-14200/gal14188-Avenger-Arnold/00.shtm

And a Lancaster that needs to go on a diet: http://www.aircraftresourcecenter.com/Gal15/14101-14200/gal14193-Lancaster-Arnold/00.shtm
